Buddha Belly was incredible to work with and elevated my party beyond expectations. By the end of the night, guests had taken every last one of their businesses cards because the food and presentation was THAT good. And shoutout to Tasha for being a sweetheart during setup!! 💕

Great food! Our guests especially loved the chicken crostini and artichoke dip. It was a pleasure working with Arielle, her thoughtful suggestions helped ensure the menu was well‑balanced and perfectly suited for our group. Truly appreciated the experience

The food was delicious. All our guests loved it so much. The honey hot chicken sliders and shrimp scampi were a crowd favorite. Arielle helped us customize menu to fit what we were looking for. 10/10 recommend and can’t wait to try out more dishes in future

We used Buddha Belly to cater a funeral luncheon. The food was delicious and on time. We were especially pleased with the fruit trays and their variety.

Love these guys! We called them a few days before an event requesting help with appetizers and set up. They were great. The food was delicious and presented very well. They came with all of the additional set up we had requested. It was so on point from beginning to end. Highly recommend!

We had Buddha Belly for a military ball event and were so impressed with them! We had short notice of the date and need for a caterer. Arielle responded quickly and provided an amazing buffet meal option within our budget. They arrived right on time for set up and break down, every person went back for seconds, some even thirds, because the food was so fabulous. She was even able to provide pescetarian and gf options! The quality was top notch, communication, responsiveness, friendliness all top tier. I cannot recommend Buddha Belly enough. They will be my first go to in the future for catering. Thank you for putting on an incredible buffet for our hungry soldiers!

The food was excellent, great choices and delivered on time. My guests raved about the selection of appetizers for my garden party. And prices were reasonable. I would definitely use again.

What can I say but pure perfection! A fantastic experience! Arielle gave us the most wonderful anniversary celebration; a 5-course dinner with 3 wine pairings. All for what you’d spend at an upper-end restaurant, without leaving the comfort of home and without having to lift a finger! Our custom-created menu was as follows: Foie gras with black truffles and crostini Seared scallops over corn purée topped with micro greens and chili vinaigrette Butternut squash ravioli in brown butter sage sauce with crispy shallot, pancetta and pine nuts Herb crusted filet with roasted seasonal vegetables and wild mushroom risotto Belgian chocolate bread pudding with creme anglais sauce with fresh berry coulis 3 wine pairings (bubbly, white, red) We loved everything about it, from the ease of the planning, to their arrival with everything in hand, even down to cutlery and plates. The presentation, the flavors, the service...and my kitchen was sparkling after they left! We will absolutely do this again!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!! Thank you, Ladies!!
